Waipu Cove you never expect them to win like that and he was very impressive. We've always liked him and it was a toss up whether he went for the maiden last night or this nursery. When we realised he had 75, we were secretly a little bit happy and he'd a 17lb pull with the top horse (Antelope Canyon) for a length-and-a-quarter beating off levels at Roscommon. We've always liked him and thought he'd win a maiden so we'll take it from there. Without insulting anybody it might not have been the greatest race this week and I'm sure the handicapper will react. we put blinkers on him today as in Roscommon he went for a gap and just shied away and was babyish - we just use headgear to help them although he didn't need them as we could have tied a leg up!

Roibeard he's a typical Big Bad Bob and is owned by a syndicate including Peter and Ross Doyle (Bloodstock) - it's good for connections as they bred it and own the mare. He's not there yet and that's as fast as he wants but he's after doing it well. He'll improve buckets for it as he's a big, green baby and I could have waited a bit longer with him. We'll stick to seven (furlongs) with him.

Cape Wolfe he's going the right way. Colin said since he got his head in front at Dundalk he hasn't looked back and he's matured into a lovely horse. There wasn't much of a gallop and it suited him as he loves to hunt one down (headed runner-up Seanie close home). We'll see what the handicapper does - I don't know if a Listed race is beyond him but fast ground is his forte and we'll have a look at it. It's nice to win three with one in Ireland.

Bear Cheek we've decided to go the same route as Ainippe with her and as winners' races are few and far between, the Group 3 Curragh Stakes (August 22nd) is the next obvious race. We'll keep to the same route as Ainippe and won't over-faze her this year although I'm not saying she'll go to England like Ainippe. She's not over-big but shows plenty of speed and is very professional - she's a little bullet.

Chenega Bay He was due that. It was a laboured performance but straight-forward and that was down to how the ground rode and how deep it was. Colin said it rode slow but we were expecting that as it'll take a while to bed down. The track can only benefit in time. They 'flipped' the surface and dug into it and added more fibre.

Vale Do Sol He ran a blinder in a good race at the Curragh and was suited by coming back to his own grade as he carries weight no problem. I'd like to thank Vincent Eivers (head groundsman) as that track is in amazing condition with no rain.

Intisari He's still very raw and very green, and that's as quick as he wants it. I think he'll improve again for that. Hopefully we can find a nice little conditions race for him. He loved the ten furlongs and the galloping track.

Reckless Endeavour He bumped into a real horse (David Wachman's Independence Day) at Down Royal. He's a nice horse and has done his job,. Colin said they went flat out, and he won like a good horse.

Azzuri The bit of juice in the ground helped, and he'll make a lovely jumping horse. That was a great performance under top-weight. He's very genuine and the rain came in time for him.

Ainippe She's a little diamond to have in the yard. I never thought she was just a five or six furlongs horse. She has proper natural speed, and this is the first time we have had to step her up in trip. She was off her feet early doors but she tries her heart out and gives you everything. I brought her here to see what she would be like over the trip. If she stays in training next year she could step up to a mile and aim for something like the Matron Stakes. I'm not sure where she will go next, although the Group 2 Park Stakes at Doncaster could be a possibility.
